ON RAIL AND CROSSTIE.
Local and General Gossip in Railway
Circles.


Yesterdays and to-day's Charleston eX-
cursions will be the last of the weekly
cheap excursions this season between Sa-
vannah and Charleston.
The Charleston travel last week was good.
The limit of the gala week excursions ex
pires tomorrow and most of the excursion
lists who have not already returned will re-
turn to-day.
The Watkinsville Enterprise is informed
that there is a project on foot to give Wat
kinsville two railroads. The new road is to
run from McDonough to Conyers, from
ConyerS TO Walnut Grove, Monroe, High
Shoals and to Watkinsville. A charter has
been secured and preliminary survey will
be made in a short time.
The Rdil,Ooy Age says thaat during the
last few months the work of railway build
ing has been going on in the United States
at rate never before equaled. The great
prosperity of the country and the tendency
to migrate into new and undeveloped
regions have encouraged the great railway
companies to push forward an enormous
amount of new mileage in order to antici-
pate or keep up with a similar enterprise
on the part of their competitors.
From Jan. l to Nov. !, 274 roads
have laid a total of 9,40S miles of
track. More track has been laid SO far this
year than in the year 1886, and exceeds the
record of all other years in the history of
this or any other country. The greatest
activity has been exhibited in a broad belt
west of the Missouri river, stretching from
Dakota and Montana south to the Gulf
Kansas continues. as last year, far in the
lead, showing already an addition of at least
1,6S0 miles since the year began. Nebraska
follows next with report of S67 miles, Tex
as with S35 miles, Colorado with 7lS miles,
and Dakota with sos miles" These four
States and one Territory already having
added 4, 79S miles of new railway, or more
than one-half of the total thus far reported
for the entire country

Polk is at his best. His "Gilderoy Punk is
one Of his best characters. The fun of the
play centres in Mr.. Folks impersonation,
and he is ON the stage most of the time.
His humor is of the quiet sort that affords
unfiagging amusement. His audiences sell
dom tire of "Gilderoy Punk and his
busted schemes. From the moment the
curtain rises until it falls there is always
plenty Of applause. The story of pretty
Dot who turns out to he an heiress with
innumerable suitors, affords enough interest

ties and eccentricities of the leading char
acter. The reserved seat sale will open on

Another Match in a Cotton Bale.

Another clew has been obtained which
may ultimately lead to a solution of the
mystery surrounding the frequent cotton
fires. Some gentlemen who were examining
the cotton from the British steamer Sylvia,
picked parlor match from a bale which
had been taken out of the vessel and was
being loaded upon lighter for reshipment.
The cotton was water soaked, and the match
was not ignitible, but the sulphur
was still on it, and showed that it had never
been lighted. How it got into the cotton is
as much mystery as the origin Of the fires
nas been, Ii may have been dropped into
the vessels hold, but the place where it was
found rather indicated that it was placed
there for purpose.

ARE TENANTS C0ERCED?
CHARGES MADE BY THE o'CALI,A-
CHAN AGENT.

He Claims the Tenants Desired to Paw.
But the National League Forbid -
Sentence of the Evicted Tenants on
Trial for Resisting the Oficers-Riots
at Ennis Station.
LONDON, June lS,-The agent of the
OCallaghan estates at Bodyke, which have
been the scene of the recent evictions.
writes to the Times stating that almost all
of the tenants held under leases at judicial
rates made by the land courts. They paid
their rent regularly until the National
League melted them to demand the 80 per
cent. reduction. Even then many of the
tenants paid their full rents secretly and had
their receipts dated back prior to the league
mandate, and some went so far as
to implore that ejectments be served
on them, although they had paid all, in
order to avoid the leagues vengeance 1.-THE
whole resistance" the agent says, twas
due to the action of the tenants In the
final negotiations nineteen tenants offered
to accept the proposal to pay e31S in lieu of
the G902 due, but Father Hannah declined
the offer on behalf of the tenants In con-
clllsion the agent says: Il have not the
least doubt could have effected a peaceful
settlement, but for the mischievous inter
ference of outsiders
PUNISHED FOR RESISTING oFFICEEs.
DUBLIN, June 1S.-Several of the tenants
arrested at Bodyke for resisting the officers
sent to evict them have been sentenced to
prison at hard labor for terms ranging from
one to three months. After being sentenced
they were taken to Ennis Station under a
heavy escort of police. Crowds of sympa-
thizing people gathered and cheered the
prisoners, and became so demonstrative that
the police were ordered to charge and dis
perse them. This they did with will and
piled their batons SO vigorously that several
pf the people were severely injured.
